Thank FUCK for that. I never understood why it was 30fps in the first place. It's not exactly pushing boundaries (though those screens look much nicer than some of the other stuff we have seen).

I agree completely, but... The way Shu has talked about it, Japan Studio is REALLY behind in the technical department (which is kind of obvious given their near complete absence from the PS3 and technical disappointments with the first Gravity Rush) and wants to quickly train them up to next gen developement standards, while at the same time having them work a ton on Vita until they can reach those standards. Essentially, he wants up to build Japan Studio to the same standards as Naughty Dog/Santa Monica Studios/Guerilla Games/etc etc and have them be a real active player this gen.

So to me, everything makes me think that Knack is a sort of simple training program for Japan Studio, with Cerny being there personally to provide hands on technical teaching and guidance.
